FIG. 4 is an exemplary subsystem 400 that includes a portion of analytical engine 106, as well as other components of system architecture 100 for identifying and ranking successful agents. Subsystem 400 includes a predictive analysis module 410, a ranking/recommendation module 412, and one or more agent computing devices 416. It should be understood that analytical engine 106 can include less components, more components, or different components depending on the desired analysis goals. In an example and referring to FIG. 1, said predictive analysis module 410 is implemented as predictive analysis module 310 in subsystem 300 and predictive analysis module 110 in system architecture 100. Similarly, the ranking/recommendation 412 is implemented as ranking/recommendation module 112 in system architecture 100.

According to an embodiment, ranking/recommendation module 412 receives the results or information computed by predictive analysis module 410 in order to identify and rank prospective agents, in addition to providing evaluation and ranking reports on current or active agents. More specifically, ranking/recommendation module 412 may identify and rank prospective agents based on their probability of success determined by predictive analysis module 410.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of an exemplary process 500 for identifying and ranking agents, according to an embodiment. A plurality of steps included in process 500 may be performed by one or more computing devices such as computing device 200 implementing/running one or more software modules/processes of the exemplary operating environments of FIGS. 1-4. The steps of this exemplary method are embodied in a computer readable medium containing a computer readable code such that the steps are implemented when the computer readable code is executed by a computing device. In some implementations, certain steps of the method can be combined, performed simultaneously, or in a different order, without deviating from the objective of the method.

Process 500 may start with defining a success criteria, at step 502. This success criteria may characterize a successful agent operation and it may be determined internally by the insurance or financial company according to business and human development objectives, and/or external circumstances such as market performance and competition. In an embodiment, success criteria may be fed to an analytical engine.

At step 504, an information gathering module in the analytical engine may collect and process information from an internal database and an external database. For example, resumes and background of prospective agents can be accessed through the external database, while profiles of active agents can be obtained from the internal database. The information collected and processed in the information gathering module can then be fed to a predictive analysis module within the analytical engine.

Using the information collected and processed by the information gathering module, the predictive analysis module may determine one or more key attributes or success factors that may be used for predicting the likelihood of success for prospective and current agents, at step 506. Examples of key attributes or success factors may include knowledge of the products to offer, college education and related professional licenses, people and communication skills, accessibility, intelligence coefficient, personality, quality of service provided to clients, experience, and periodic evaluation reports, among others.

Subsequently, at step 508, the predictive analysis module may perform quantitative and qualitative analysis on each of the key attributes or predictive success factors for weighting their relevance in the likelihood of success for potential and current agents. The predictive analysis module may use a probability algorithm for computing statistics, variability and trends regarding one or more key attributes or predictive success factors. In addition, the algorithm in the predictive analysis module may determine necessary timeframes for the development or first appearance of predictive factors or key attributes. For example, the algorithm in the predictive analysis module may determine that successful agents usually achieve a desired level of quality of service within the first 6 months of acquiring a new customer account.

Process 500 may include parallel or subsequent steps in which prospective agents may be identified and matched, and in which current agents may be ranked and evaluated. At step 510, a ranking/recommendation module in the analytical engine may identify one or more prospective agents based on the analysis performed in the predictive analysis module. Subsequently, the ranking/recommendation module may match the characteristics or attributes of the identified prospective agents to the profiles of one or more general agents, at step 512. For example, the ranking/recommendation module may determine that certain prospective agents may be best suited for working with a particular general agent covering a region that includes clients with more complex or sophisticated needs. The ranking/recommendation module may then send a list of identified potential agents to one or more agent computing devices, at step 514. One or more general agents may use this list of identified potential agents to expand operations and coverage, renew personnel, develop new products, and improve customer service, among other business activities.

In a parallel or subsequent sub-process, the ranking/recommendation module may use the results from the predictive analysis module to rank active or current agents, at step 516. This ranking may be based on the probability of success of active agents computed by the predictive analysis module. Furthermore, the ranking/recommendation module may send periodic ranking reports or performance assessment reports to one or more general agents through a suitable connection with one or more agent computing devices, at step 518. General agents may use these ongoing assessment reports of current agents for evaluating and following up their career developments.

By executing method 500 through the exemplary operating environments shown in FIGS. 1-4, big data analytics and data mining techniques can be implement for a more efficient and faster processing of larger data sets. In this way, efficiencies are created by providing the financial or insurance company with ways to automatically identify prospective agents and assess the likelihood of success of prospective and current agents. In addition, general agents of the financial or insurance company can receive automatic ranking reports of current and prospective agents, as well as periodic evaluation reports or assessments on current or active agents. These features allow performing large work such as heavy calculations and time consuming analysis in a more efficient manner than other approaches such as manual work performed by humans.

An exemplary embodiment is an application of the systems and process described in FIGS. 1-4 and FIG. 5. In this application, the system and process may be able to provide the names, profiles, and ranking of about 25 new prospective agents to the general agent of the New York City region. The general agent may use these agent leads in recruitment processes and expansion plans. In addition, the general agent may receive ranking and assessment reports on about 50 active or current agents under his supervision.
